Fedora Core 1 + nForce 2 Guide?

volt · 01-17-04, 03:34 AM

I've been somewhat frustrated not getting FC1 to work with nForce drivers (NVIDIA_nforce-1.0-0261.tar.gz)

Yesterday I installed a new kernel http://people.redhat.com/arjanv/2.6/...1.131.i686.rpm but this one seems to need a patch.

Anyone know of a guide to get both audio and nvnet working without patching anything? Older kernel is fine, as long as it's the updated one, 2149.

http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/show...threadid=20426 is a thread about the new NVIDIA ethernet driver - you can use that in lieu of the binary drivers.

that's cool, i compiled it from source

Be sure to give feedback to the driver authors - even if it works perfectly fine.

He still used the nVidia driver, not forcedeth.

I didn't feel like patching it. Plus there are still a few problems with the 2.6.1 - at least here. So currently on 2149 :>

Hmmmm - I thought you were using a "modern" kernel, like 2.4.24 or 2.6.1.

It is modern (currently in Fedora tree): 2.4.22-1.2149

Yeah, but 2.4.23, 2.4.24, 2.6.0 and 2.6.1 are the only kernels that have the forcedeth driver bundled with the source.

I've read of problems with nvnet module, something about not being operational at 100% Have you heard of this?
